SOMERSWORTH — Police continue to investigate Monday’s attempted home invasion on Main Street, in which three suspects, one holding a handgun, unsuccessfully tried to break into an apartment.

Police Capt. Russell Timmons said police still do not know the identity of the three men, who tried to break into the home around noon on Monday. The incident was reported by one of the two occupants of the apartment at 117A Main St. According to Timmons, the three men were unable to get past the locked door of the home, and fled on foot after the failed attempt to enter the apartment.

It is currently unknown whether the suspects were known to the residents of the home, and the alleged victims did not provide police with the names of the suspects — either because they don’t know the suspects’ names, or because they don’t want to release the names to police, said Timmons.

After the incident, police performed a K9 track, with help from the Rochester police K9 unit, but the track was unsuccessful.

Police say the attempted home invasion does not appear to be a random act, and that public safety is not jeopardized.

Anyone with information about the incident is encouraged to call the Police Department at 692-3131, or the Crimeline at 692-9111.
